Winner of the most hyped Summer Anime Poll is: Attack on Titan Season 3. Not a big surprise, but have a heavy yaoi subtext official poster anyway.

New poll is more of a general question, but I thought I'd turn it to a poll anyway. When describing anime (or manga) names, do you tend to use the original Japanese, or the translated name?

I find that I use the English name more often, unless it sounds awkward. As a random example, back when I read Seven Deadly Sins, I always used the english name instead of Nanatsu no Taizai...since the translated name is so easy to remember, but with your average long light novel sentence name I'll almost always use Japanese (or a shortened version anyway). I'm curious if anyone will tend to prefer Japanese names even with easily translated titles, or if anyone goes out of their way to keep everything in English as much as possible.
